Dog Sledding Tours
Dream of joining a husky safari? There is now a chance to try it for yourself. Some local tour operators offer dog sledding trips and challenge in the remote wilderness of Iceland. This is the ultimate challenge, sledding miles through the wildnerness of Iceland where the extreme conditions and physical demands mean the bond between man and dog becomes essential.
Trips take place during winter and involve six days sledding across the frozen lakes, snow-covered mountains and deep forests of Northern Norway. Participants and guides are responsible for their own team of 4-6 huskies, who will be their companions every day on their journeys across the snow. You will get to feed, harness and look after the dogs throughout the trip, accompanied by an experienced leader, local guide and expedition doctor.
Full training is provided and no previous experience in sledging is necessary, although a love of these beautiful dogs and a reasonable level of fitness are required.
“This is the chance to go on a once in lifetime trip. The husky sledding challenge offers wild adventure, a physical challenge and breathtaking natural beauty.” - Kathryn L, UK
